AnimeNYC - Battle of the AfterParties!!!
Joseph W.
Summer 2024 has been an amazing experience for content creators, cosplayers, and pop culture enthusiasts. From summer movie hits to amazing pop culture conventions, this summer was nothing short of wonderful. And now that we are in the final month of summer, the stark reality is setting in: the beach season is ending, amusement parks will be a little less populated, and the weather will soon bring a colder breeze, signaling the changing of the leaves and the eventful return of the holiday season. However, there is one final gem that will touch down for the pop culture scene for Summer ‘24…..ANIMENYC
For the first time, AnimeNYC will take place in the summer months, and they now have complete control of the Javitz Center...rivaling that of the famed New York Comic Con. Novices, otakus, weebs, and fans of Japanese culture will, for three days, journey to another universe and embody the best version of their favorite anime/manga/pop culture character. While many content creators will report and discuss the event, there's one aspect of the convention that many may not witness...The After Parties.
Anime NYC is famous for its after-parties, which have become the legend within the NYC anime community. These events keep the convention vibes alive going into the night, offering a mix of fun, fandom, and camaraderie. For AnimeNYC, the next 3-4 days are going to be filled with DJs, dance floors with surprise guest appearances, anime themed drinks and an unforgettable nightlife experience.
SideNote: Whether it’s the official after party or an unofficial “off the hook” vibe. August 22nd -25th AfterParties are going to be LIT!!!
